Let's see your PEDAL BOARD!

Yeah who else would collect purple dildos?

I've thought about it

DAYUMN

Do you ever play out with those? Or is there a third board that's smaller and more practical for actual live/rehearsel use?

On the rare occasion I take it out, I take the PT-Pro (the one with the H9s), it is pretty self contained. I have a PT-2 as well, but that's mostly overflow.

I think the real question is who wouldn't?

[D.o.S.]

What's the Cali do and why do you have two of them (beyond the "why not have two of them")

[popvulture]

Compressors. Probably got em pre/post fx, no?

Expensive as hell compressors.

You see them on P&W boards a lot.

[D.o.S.]

Ah. Well maybe he's got one of each version?

Compressors, I like them quite a bit. Those are two different versions of the same-ish thing. One is pre, one is post right now.

[nshuman]

One is the TX version, standard with output transformer. The otehr one is the limited edition G-P version with parallel blend and germanium boost.

[D.o.S.]

Nifty. I know comparatively fuck all about compressors, so what's the purpose of running them pre and post fx?

[rustywire]

Stuntin, mostly

It can do tons of things. Fatten up your tone, limit peaks, act as an effect. It can be used for a million different things. Different ones will do very different things.

[Inconuucl]

Clean it's an effect that's more pronounce in a live context, but it makes playing with delays a lot better IMO. If you do a lot of clean mathy tapping it's a must, as it prevents the inevitable lost of volume that oftentimes ruins those parts live.
I always have my Accountant on, but that's because I love how it affects my tone apart from the compression. While some fuzzes take comps like shit, other fuzzes become a lot thicker with one behind them. It also makes a lot of tracking effects more accurate.
